Fuck Kendrick, he doesn't rap about the same stuff as Snoop, Dre, Kurupt and Daz so I don't support him!JK, congrats to him, well deserved.

Once this single gets major burn then he will have the visibility to follow up with another singleThe sample is about a Year or Two too early, 1997 was just yesterday. Classic song definitely, but not vintage like the James Brown songs they used to sample in the late 80's-early 90's (even tho a few of them were too early themselves).And believe me, i get WHY they wanna use that song but I personally don't think it's the right single for NOW. I think everybody who's familiar with Kendrick Lamar know of "Poetic Justice" with Drake. I think personally it's more of a backfire right now than a good move.the original Janet song was released in 1993, not 1997 though. and J. Diggs sampled it three years ago and did a better job overall (even though Drake & Kendrick are superior rappers obviously, his song came out better)http://www.youtube.com/v/TAS1j5k-U3Ii don't think it's a good single pick either, it's one of the subpar tracks off the album IMO even though Drake & Kendrick did their thing, they kinda butchered Janet's classic.

someone post the best song from kendrick , i wanna hear what the fuss is about . i don´t usually check anything Dre "makes" these days, he´s gone from an innovator to a follower
